From the discovery of this well-known medication, to the science behind its function, and spanning all the way to treatments for the underlying condition of erectile dysfunction as well as a complication of said treatments called priapism, this episode covers a lot of ground.
As you might imagine, there will be discussions of male genitalia, the existence of sex, and sexual health in this one, as written by Dr. Mike and presented in Poor Historians Podcast fashion.
Listener discretion is advised.
